I just wanted to do a quick post to wish all my friends and bloggers a very merry Christmas and I hope you all find peace, joy, love and quality times with your loved ones!

I am late with a DT post but my health has been very bad and pain very agonising! Tried a new patch which is 100 x more potent than morphine but had a very bad reaction to it'. Thought I was dying , never again will I take strong painkiller patches like that.

Anyway on a good note I'm ok and all I can do is apologise for lack of posts and comments. I miss crafting and blogging lol!

Have a fabulous Christmas and much love to you all!!

I have had a few Christmas E cards and will look at them tomorrow. Thank you Margaret K and Jenny L for your kind gesture and thinking of me. Will respond and look ASAP.

I hope you are all well and looking forward to Christmas and hopefully not too stressed..

I'm afraid this is my last post for FitzTown DT as I wanted to concentrate on the one DT team I'm on DS4J.

Also due to health reasons I knew I was taking too much on so thought its only for the best, but I've been so blessed to be a part of FitzTown DT as they are so friendly and lovely to be with so thank you all for having me!!

The new challenge over at FitzTown is to make an Easel card. Very easy to do with an A4 piece of card. Yet I chose the difficult way and made an diamond easel card lol.

Here is my card I made using the image from the winter collection called Winter 8 which you can buy here:

I hope you are all well and getting ready for christmas. I love Christmas! It can be stessful sometimes, but really, it's all about loved ones and spending quality time with them and thinking ourselves lucky for everything we have.

Thank you all so much for all your comments.

Im afraid you wont see many posts coming from me during the christmas period unless they are DT Posts.
I have decided to try and rest and take some time to get ready for christmas too.
I will be around visiting your blogs and commenting but just not many posts during christmas.

Anyway, lol, this is my card for inspiration for our current challenge of Monochromatic over at FitzTown

I decided on red this time as red always reminds me of Christmas. This is a birthday card though not a Christmas card.

I hope you are all well and all ready for my favorite time of year "Christmas!"

I can't apologize enough for not commenting on your blogs regularly. I'm doing my best but at this time of year especially as I can't go out I'm relying on other ways of getting in presents for family etc.

Anyway today over at DS4J our new challenge is distressing which is so effective on any kind of cards!

Our challenge is hosted by Berni:

I am Berni, a DT member, and I am hosting the challenge "Distressing."

You ask yourself, what is distressing?Whatever the object, the finish is intentionally destroyed or manipulated to look less than perfect, such as with sandpaper. I am big fan of Tim Holtz the master in distressing with his fabulous projects worldwide. I created my card with the Tim Holtz brick

embossing folder and sanded over the embossing, and then colored the image with Tim Holtz Distress

Markers.

We are so excited to see your fabulous projects. The challenge starts on Tuesday 11 December. We would prefer for you to use DS4Jimage from the store, but not necessary. You will have an edge for the drawing if you do.

This is the card I made using DS4J image called "Gael" which you can buy here: DS4J Store

I have used this gorgeous image from the FAE Collection over at the FitzTown store which you can buy here: FitzTown store

I made a center step card and used a good majority of different shades of blue to match my image.

This is what I made:

The dies are used are a majority of Spellbinders, Marianne creatables and joy crafts dies.

The Dp and Sentiment are from my crafty stash
I always seem to use snippets when making my card but keep forgetting to enter into the Pixie Crafty Playground Challenges. Such fun over there and so friendly and welcoming.
To enter all you need to do is use snippets in your project.
I use snippets on this projects on most of my die cutting.
To enter just click the link in the challenges below.

Fitztown is more than just a digi stamp company.

They have digital stamps and images, craft CDs, books, comics, Apple and Android apps and a whole lot more.

If you would like to join their challenges and do not have a blog, you are welcomed to email your project to stampnscrapjunkie {@} gmail {dot} com and they will upload your project for you.
